Penthouse’s Infuriating Ending Prompts K-netizens to Revisit Worst Drama Endings of All Time and Top of the List Remains High Kick Through the Roof

View Comments

• Would anyone be kind enough as to elaborate on what happened in this terrible High Kick Through the Roof ending, please?

  • post from dramabeans from back in 2010 explains what happened: https://www.dramabeans.com/2010/03/producers-talk-about-high-kicks-controversial-ending/

    • Speaking of Dramabeans, their reaction to the finale of Do Do La La So etc was jaw dropping. For a site that takes pride in logical, respectful discussion there were F-bombs flying! Luckily I decided to drop the show at ep 10 when I felt the writer/PD were actively trolling fans. Turns out I was right and newbies are forever warned to never watch past ep 12 of that train wreck.

    • @hellomoocow: thanks so much! Let me go read about this terribleness now!

• Gong Yoo’s Big.... I’m his loyal fan but I never understood what happened in that drama!

• Memories of Bali and Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi. Enough said.

• The flying saucer thingy in Indiana Jones Kingdom of Crystal Skull. For those old enough to remember, in Dynasty (1987), Fallon Carrington Colby was abducted by aliens in the desert. Smh.

  • If we are including non-kdramas, then...

    Game of Thrones, hands down.

    • I totally agree with this!!!
      Spent 8 years of my life to see that finale.

    • they have all the budget, all the time, and the resources but they still feel like an unfinished product, it feels like the Kdrama shooting schedule

    • I vote for Hanzee mowing down the Gerhardt crime family including the matriarch. Stab, stab, stab like Jon Snow. Imo, last episode felt a bit deflated actually after all the build up.

    • Just couldn't wait for George so Benioff & Weiss effed up the last season. Greedy. Could have waited a bit more to get more meat for the whole series. Fans can wait. Instead we have a Bollywood movie ending.

• sky castle ending might be abit vanilla compare to the rest of the show. but still, it's not ruining the whole drama. not bad at all....

  and I disagree whoever think Hi bye mama ending is bad. from the first episode, I already can tell the ending that would fit better is sending away the female lead in peace. if u make her comeback from the dead, it will be crazy weird.

• I don't know what can top Fashion King. Complete WTF moment. Funny how High Kick's Shin Se Kyung was in Fashion King too.

  • I feel the same. For me nothing can top Fashion King. I was literally like WTF

• People had complaints about 49 Days, but I guess I am in the minority that found the ending fitting because Ji-hyun already became more alive when she was in limbo and started tearing down the lies.

  Big was the one that really drove me mad. Never watched a Hong Sisters drama since then.

  • No, I liked 49 Days as well but we are in the minority.

• Memories of bali. The worst ever

  • Yup! Memories of Bali ending gave me ptsd for months..lol..it took me a very long time to watch any of Ha ji won's Jo in sung's and so jisub's drama..?

  • Memories of Bali is the ultimate! Such a solid drama and daesang worthy acting all the way until the last one minute of the last episode! :-)

• because this is my 1st life?
  it's not bad but I think it reaffirms how I think the female lead is all talk, no action,
  she gets everything she wishes without deserving any of it
  this drama is a whole middle class fairy tale but pretending like isn't because they have "monologue" at the end of each episode,

• Sky Castle wasn't bad, but more positive than the rest of the drama.

  I hate the end of 49 Days, God's Gift - 14 Days, Because it's My First Time, Fashion King, Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol, Bad Guy.
